AHC's Hottest Health Employers

#2 – Methodist Hospital System

This Houston-based employer gets high marks for medical and employment excellence. It is not only a Best Hospital (in 14 out of 16 specialties), a Nurse Magnet facility, and a Best Company to Work – it’s also made the Most Wired Hospital Top 100 list. Only two of the winners here have that quadruple distinction. This prestigious healthcare system has four hospitals, one of which has been open for more than 85 years. All four hospitals offer administrative fellowships and internship programs, continuing medical education, graduate medical education, and a pharmacy residency program.

More than 10,000 people work here. All of them (except for doctors and senior executives) got $200 grocery cards last year – just for working there. Job growth was 11% last year as was voluntary turnover. The staff is 66% minorities and 76% women. Last year, there were 89,000 job applicants, so make sure your cover letter is error-free and your references think the world of you if you are planning on applying.
